Google Calendar brings new way to browse through months

Google Calendar is one of the most popular calendar apps in the world. While Samsung ships its phones, tablets, and smartwatches with the Samsung Calendar app, many people still prefer the Google Calendar app, and it is now getting an easier way to browse through the months.

Google Calendar for Android gets improved browsing for months

The new version of Google Calendar has introduced chips for each month just below the month view. This makes it easier to browse through months and make calendar entries far into the future. Each month chip has the month’s name in three-letter terms, and the whole horizontal bar of the months is scrollable.

Manuel Vonau spotted this new UI element, and he posted the screenshot on X. It was found in the Agenda View in the latest version (2024.13.1-624115131-release) of the Google Calendar app for Android. It may be a server-side release, which means not everyone can see this new UI element.

Over the past few months, Google introduced several tweaks to the design, including an easier way to create events and a dedicated app for Wear OS-based smartwatches. It also made creating tasks effortless and merged with Google Tasks for reminders.
